Reasonable adjustment |
In assessing whether a particular adjustment is reasonable consideration should be given to: · the student’s disability and his/her views · the effect of the adjustment on the student, including effect on his/her ability to achieve learning outcomes, participate in courses or programs and achieve independence · the effect of the proposed adjustment on anyone else affected, including the education provider, staff and other students · the costs and benefits of making the adjustment. As a result, what constitutes "reasonable" varies on a case-by-case basis and the balance is sometimes difficult to strike. However, it is clear that education providers are not required to lower academic standards or disregard the needs staff or other students. In more complex cases discussion with the disability service will be useful. It may be useful to examine previous judgements in relation to the DDA. |
LL&N |
An RTO needs to fit LLN into the delivery of its training and assessment as it has an important role in: · redressing any deficiencies in its students’ key LLN skills · building the generic skills of teamwork, communication and problem solving that are highly valued by employers. |
Employability skills |
In addition to developing skills and knowledge for a particular job, this program also aims to help you to develop broad work skills, known as Employability Skills. There are eight employability skills. Employability Skills which feature in the Diploma of Visual Art include: • Communication • Teamwork • Problem solving • Initiative and enterprise • Planning and organising • Self-management • Learning • Technology Employability skills are embedded in the units of competency in your program.
